Looking at starting a Webcomic. Might begin with stick figures, something simple.

Weekend roundup

sitting here watching a re-run of NCIS. As much as i try to ignore the the line that's going up and down the left side of my HDTV, it still very distracting! I need to take it in to get looked at. I will be without a TV for who knows how long :( But I'm just delaying the inevitable.

I wanted to re-cap my weekend on Sunday but forgot. As I usually forget that I have a blog, and even though nobody reads this, I still like posting, you know for myself.

Friday I spent a couple of hours cleaning my room, because my kid was coming over for the weekend. It was TRASHED! My dad drove down to see his grandson. We went to the park for a bit, trying to keep up with Liam, as he ran around the park. Another reason why I'm trying to loose weight. Getting tired of feeling so exhausted when I do the littlest activities. Liam mentioned that he wanted Ice cream, so we took him to McDonald's so he could play in the kid"s area. My dad had planned to stay the night, but was called away for work. Liam and I spent the rest of the night watching Netflix on the Wii, switching between Dora and Diego.

Saturday did the usual made breakfast for my kid. Watched some more kids show on Netflix. Went out with my mom and Liam, to yard sales and a few goodwill stores. I was mainly looking for an office chair so I stop using a regular kitchen one. I found one for $10 and it was half off :-D On the way out, I walked over to the small electronic glass display they had, and saw that they had a wireless keyboard/mouse combo for only $9.99 I saw a a box that had artwork I recognized. it was The Lord of the Rings trilogy for $5 all books in excellent condition. I never really do any of those things, bargain hunting. But I won't rag on it anymore, you can find tons of stuff for dirt cheap. At night we drove out of Chandler to go to a Sonic, just to go out for a drive, We all got ice cream including Liam.

Sup?

Sunday the entire family went to church. I don't take my kid when I have him, since he usually can't stay still and won't let me listen to the day's sermon. I returned my kid to his mom. I went to the market to get snacks for the Mad Men premiere gathering I was having. Needless to say the episode was great, and can't wait to see what the rest of the season has in store for us.

Not a bad weekend. I'm still nervous about shutting down my computer, after the crash it had about 2 weeks ago. But so far it's going good. I've only installed up to SP3 and there are more updates this computer should have. But those updates "SEEM" to be causing the crash. So It will stay like this for a while, until I can get it looked at or BUY a new one.

I'm temped to buy StarCraft II but I know for a fact that my puny graphics card wont be able to handle it :( ALSO! I know that my processor is a bit behind of its times. So I got to do research on what I need to do. Buy new or Upgrade the old one....hmmmmm

Bargain!

Wet to goodwill with the fam it was actually allot of fun. Found me a nice keboard and mouse combo. Also found The Lord of the rings trilogy for 8 dollars! It was fun bargain shopping! And of course had a blast with my kid :)

Useless update

Cleaning my room. I'm really surprised on how much laundry I've done...and how much SHIT I have in my room.

Blade VS Twilight

I wish he just would!

My BB Home Screen

Here's the home screen of my Blackberry :) Since I'm using the "free" version of the app that lets me do this, it puts a watermark at the bottom of the screen. I might drop 3 bucks for this it's pretty cool.

R.I.P. Tempe Town Lake

Tempe Town Lake is GONE! :(

Inception Theory List

Here's Some theories i found online. Definitely need to give this movie another go. Source

Theory 1 – The top (Dom’s current totem) is wobbling and will eventually stop. Dom has returned to reality.

Theory 2 – Dom received a kick from Saito in limbo, but it did not work and Dom has gone deeper into limbo by being killed within a dream under sedation. Dom remains in Limbo.

Theory 3 – The entire movie is simply Dom’s dream wrestling with his fatherhood and mortality, and he simply woke up on the plane after a regular business trip. Plain and simple.

Theory 4 – The entire movie is Dom’s dream and part of Dom and Mal’s research. Mal was right that they were not yet in reality and has been attempting to extract Dom through inception.

Theory 5 – The entire movie is in Dom’s dream, but the idea is the result of Inception on Dom by his father or some other corporation.

1. How did Dom’s kids know how to reach him at a hotel halfway across the world if their Grandma did not want them to speak to him?
2. Where is Grandma at the end of the movie?
3. The children have the same clothes on throughout the movie, including the ending.
4. When Dom wakes up on the plane, he is not hooked to any device.
5. No one on the plane speaks to him after he wakes up, except Miles who says “Welcome Back”.
6. Dom has a wedding band on in “reality” throughout the movie, but on during the “dream” sequences.
7. The totem is actually Mal’s, not Dom’s. What is Dom’s totem?
8. No one should know or touch someone else’s totem. However, multiple people know and touch Dom’s.
9. Why are the so many agents of the corporation in Mumbasa, wearing the same type of outfits that are worn by security projections in Fischers’ dream?
10. Mal continuously runs her finger across a knife but does not bleed.
11. Why did Dom not wait for the totem to stop spinning? Was it because his children turned around?
12. The children never age throughout the film. If Dom had time to start a business and speak with his children multiple times, send them gifts, and tell them he would come home eventually, why would they look the same at the end of the movie?
13. How can one call solve major immigration issues with one phone call?
14. Did Dom and Saito simply come out from under sedation on the plane?
15. Who was out there militarizing important people’s subconscious? Was extraction a growth industry? Who else knew how to execute the process?
16. I suspect the selected music for extraction has a meaning, but that is likely DVD Commentary material.
17. Is it safe to assume Grandma is Mal’s mom?
18. Where are the kicks coming out of limbo for Dom and Saito through the 5 different levels?
19. How did Dom get to the shores where Saito’s men found him?
20. What does Dom’s dad mean when he says “Come back to reality”?

Inception Theories

Been reading up on Inception, and I'm pretty amazed on how much theories there are up on the net. I was reading a whole bunch of them. NOW I have to see the movie again..some of the theories made a lot sense..Oh Nolan you smart BASTARD!

Hangage

Hit up some Pacific Seafood buffet with Jorge and his cousins. It was crowded. The waitress we got was horrible! At one point we had to ask a second waitress to get us our drinks. She stood right by us to make sure we left here a tip. We didn't leave her much of a tip.

Last night it was Ruben's Birthday. Jorge came and picked me up around 9PM. Kind of late. We went to Texas Road House, 20 minutes before they closed. We hung out there for a few. Ruben his GF and their two friends ordered food to go. Jorge paid for the bill (Ruben's B-day present) we went to Jorge's house. We kicked it for a bit, had a few drinks, watched Boondocks Saints II.

Not a bad weekend/Night

Inception

So I've been hearing nothing but good things about this movie, and I didn't want to over-hype myself. While I will admit it did start out slow, it builds into one of the most complex and stunning movies I've seen in a loooong time, and the ending was PERFECT. I will most definitely be seeing this movie again. I Just wish there wasn't a DOUCHE bag sleeping and SNORING on the seat behind me...so annoying!

I was talking to my friends about Dicaprio ALWAYS making a sad or depressing movie, he needs to make a comedy next. Like he should of been in Hot Tub Time Machine! But seriously he needs to be in something lighter, enough of this DRAMA BULL! :)

A Horrible Loss

Just learned today that one of my friends 3 year old died. Jayden was his name. His mom was studying, and he got out of the house. After searching for him, cops where called, after looking everywhere, Jayden's moms car was checked, and his body was found inside. It looks like he locked himself inside the car, and the heat killed him.

Immediately thought of my kid, he's almost the Jayden's age. I could only imagine what its like to lose a kid.

It's a MIRACLE

Don't know where i got the idea from. But having given up on my computer for good. I decided to just unplugged everything (RAM, Hard Drive etc.) and just plug them all back in. Well i guess that did the trick. Because my computer works perfectly fine, if not better than before. I'm guessing that there was a loose wire or cable..NO CLUE, I'll take it. But it's really good to have a working computer again :)

Also..OMG Dragon Age 2! LOVED the first one, and from what I can see, they've made vast improvements from the part 1. BIOWARE never fails at RPG.

Refrigerator of the FUTURE

Mom and got a new Refrigerator..Our last one was from the early 90's. The new one is so..futuristic. It has green LED lights around the Water and Ice dispenser..kind of creeping me out HA.

Season 2 of Veronica Mars is turning out to be just as good as the first. The way they structure it, and all the mysteries they throw at you.

My Kid

Aaaaah man I LOVE this kid!

Peter Piper

Aaaaah what a great night with my kid. Went to Peter Piper Pizza and had a blast. Liam Shot some hoops and won some tickets. He spent them on a lollipop :) He's growing so fast!

Getting old

Did about 3 hours of yard work yesterday. I woke up with my back sore. I had some problems with the lawnmower..took about 45 minutes of bending down and pulling the cord to start it up. I guess I'm getting old :( But at least the front and back yard looks great.

Been on a Hugh Grant kick recently. Getting some of his movies thought Netflix Blu-ray. Me and the family enjoy his flicks.

Started watching Veronica Mars on Netflix streaming, its pretty good. Although I last I think only 3 seasons. One of those that everybody agrees was cancelled too soon.

ERROR ERROR

Haven't blogged in a while. My computer just stopped recognizing windows when I went to turn it on almost a week ago. I borrowed a Windows XP cd from a friend. After having to format my Hard Drive, windows was installed. Unfortunately this is a custom made computer, so drivers are very hard to find for example. Graphics card. As soon as I start to install updates, usually Service Pack 2, it tells me that Windows has encountered a critical error and shuts down. It pretty much stops loading Windows again...after several attempts I gave up.

So I've been relying on my moms computer and my Blackberry. It will be a while before I get my computer fixed or save up for a new one. (Cry)
